Skywest DEN or ORD

[Parrot_Head_Fly]

Hows the lines out of DEN? Out of ORD? I've searched and from what I understand DEN is more senior, is that correct? ORD easy to get and shorter reserve? Mostly 4 day trips? Thanks in advance.

DEN has mostly 3 and 4 day trips, ORD has mix of locals, 2 days, 3 days, and 4 days. ORD is more junior and easier to get out of training. Not sure about how long you'll sit reserve. When things aren't moving, you'll be in reserve no matter which base you're in.

Good luck!

Locals? What, does that mean you just fly during the day then go home at night, like a 9-5?

Yep....some places like SBA and SBP have only locals...those guys are home every night.....kinda nice if you have a family....

Yeah, mine last month were 5am-noon three days a week, then one 6am-4pm.

Some locals make you feel like you want to be on 4 days...sleep, wake up, work, go home, eat, sleep...times 4.
